Control Settings

189

When you select Synchronize with next block, the block immediately
following the Redefine Position block must be another Redefine Position
block. GML Commander does not permit a connection to be made to any
other kind of function block.

In the example above, select Synchronize with next block in the first three
Redefine Position blocks—but not in the last block—to simultaneously
redefine all four axes’ positions.

Control Settings

Use the Control Settings block to:

Send the current working or power-up value of the selected data
parameter or data bit (Show Type) to the operator interface port

Change the current working or power-up value of the selected data
parameter or data bit (Adjust Type)

Store the current value of the selected data parameter or data bit
(Read Type) in a selected user variable

The Control Settings block resides on the Main Palette.

Power-Up Values

When you select Power-up from the Value menu, the motion controller
shows, adjust or read the current power-up value (or state) of the data
parameter or data bit selected from the scrolling list, depending upon the
command Type selected. (See Data Parameters and Data Bits in
Appendix A
for more information.) The power-up values are the values
entered in the Configure Control Options dialog box, and in the Configure
Axis Use dialog box.
